Nondegree-Seeking Graduate Studies

To take a graduate course, a student must be admitted into a degree program or be admitted as a nondegree-seeking student. A nondegree-seeking student is a person who wants to take one or more credits but does not want to seek completion of a degree program.

Nondegree-seeking Application and Admission Procedures

Please Submit the Following Application Materials:

One Copy of the Application Form: Application for Admission to the Graduate School

Students must meet the same grade point average (GPA) requirements as applicants to a degree program.
You do not need to send letters of recommendation since they are not required by the College of Education for nondegree-seeking students.
No more than nine (9) hours earned as a nondegree-seeking student may be transferred into a regular degree program if a student is later admitted into a regular degree program. Students must meet the same GPA requirements as applicants to a degree program.

A Transcript from the institution awarding your bachelor's degree and where applicable a transcript from all institutions where you earned any graduate credits. Copies that are stamped "issued to student" can be accepted when applying for nondegree-seeking student status, but official transcripts are needed when applying for admission to a degree program. K-State graduates must upload an unofficial copy of your K-State transcript.
